Reply To: Can bbpress create an alternative plugin for bbpress Topics for Posts
BBpress Forum Redirect ties the page of content and the forum topic used for ‘Topics for posts’ together better.
E.g. https://www.adventureridingnz.co.nz/gps-tracks-rides/north-island-tracks/makairo-track/
This page ‘uses ‘topics for posts’ to have a BBpress forum topic instead of WordPress comments underneath the page content.
The BBPress topic for the above page also appears on it’s own in the BBpress forums, in my case at https://www.adventureridingnz.co.nz/forums/topic/makairo-track/
‘BBpress Forum Redirect’ provides a URL field in the forum topic admins screen to redirect the forum url to. In my case I redirect the forum url to the page url so that when the forum topic is accessed directly via the BBpress forum, the user is redirected to the content page with the forum topic underneath. You can see this in action where https://www.adventureridingnz.co.nz/forums/topic/makairo-track/ redirects to https://www.adventureridingnz.co.nz/gps-tracks-rides/north-island-tracks/makairo-track/
Without ‘BBpress Forum Redirect’ if the user accessed the forum topic the user would be able to read the forum topic but would have no visibility of the page the topic was in regard to.
